PIV-ready High Sec Controller 7000

Issue 2 2025 News & Events

Gallagher Security announced the release of the latest addition to its controller product range; the High Sec Controller 7000 incorporates all the core functions of the C7000 Standard variant released less than 18 months ago, while expanding them in key areas to deliver customers enhanced reliability, resilience, redundancy, and enhanced cybersecurity.

Gallagher Security product manager, Jim Rayner, who led production on the High Sec C7000, says, “While the Controller 7000 Standard already has excellent cybersecurity functionality, the High Sec C7000 goes a step further, with higher-security government and commercial applications firmly in mind.”

He adds, “We are increasingly seeing an appetite for large users who need solutions certified to be used on critical national infrastructure. These are not necessarily government sites, but also commercial enterprises seeking to mitigate risk to ensure business continuity. These users want devices that are PIV-ready to get that extra level of security – they want to get ahead of emerging threats.”

The High Sec C7000 is built with FIPS-compliant components and is PIV-ready on release to comply with U.S. Federal Government standards for new products. It also meets Class 5 standards, which require monitoring of cabling between device and controller for Australia and New Zealand high-security customers, including government, defence, prisons, and data centres.

The High Sec C7000 is currently undergoing the relevant compliance testing for CAPSS and AACS from the UK’s National Protective Security Authority (NPSA), and FIPS 201 (US Federal Government standards).

Providing end users with industry-leading protection against attacks on firmware in the supply chain and a platform ready for the future, Gallagher’s C7000 product range has IP-based controllers that can manage all localised access control, intruder alarms, perimeter security, business automation, and logic needs for an organisation.
